Backed by strong collective pitching on Sunday, the Terps secured a Big Ten tournament title for the first time in program history.
The Terps squeaked by the Spartans in their opening game of the Big Ten tournament.
The Terps extended their Big Ten series streak without a series loss to 23 series, dating back to 2021.
The Terps, in their final midweek game of the season, put up just five hits and allowed four home runs.
The Terps used a five-run fifth frame to key the win.
The Terps used a pair of seven-run innings to key the victory.
Sunday’s victory gave the Terps their fourth-straight series win to open Big Ten play.
In an outing that started on Saturday but was temporarily suspended due to weather until Sunday, a four-run fourth inning keyed the Terps’ victory.
The Terps are 6-0 in Big Ten action on Friday and Saturday’s, but 0-3 on Sunday’s. Their pitching staff has allowed 13 runs a game on Sunday’s, the main reason why they’ve struggled to close out a conference series.
The Terps used a six-run seventh inning to key the win on Tuesday.
